Biomechatronics is a newer field, but a fascinating one.

Mechatronics engineers are making


machines to support, or in the case of a loss to replace, the natural functions of the human body.
One of the most sophisticated examples of this today is i-Limb, a prosthetic hand with bionic
components to aid amputees. i-Limb uses sensors placed on the wearer’s skin that allow them to
control the movement of the hand and fingers through muscle signals. Each finger has its own
motor so that wearers can move every part of the hand in a way that mimics the body’s natural
motor control. As this field expands we can almost certainly expect to see more and more lifelike
prosthetic options, wearable tech, and possibly even mechanical organs or sophisticated aides for
internal body parts like the heart.
